One last gasp. Need RF Phone Recommendations for Fringe area signal--ASAP!

Here's the deal. I'm in a 1900 (PCS) area and am experiencing very marginal RF reception on a 6100. I know I can force mode to the 800 band but I don't want to or have to be switching back and forth necessarily. Currently the LG 6100 hunts in and out between the main network, extended, and occassionally, no service throughout the day at my desktop at work.

I've tried a 7000 and an 8000. Similar results though obviously digital only switching.

I can't take it any more.
For me a 710 is out of the running. My questions are this:

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ONE:
--Will a Moto v265 pull stronger than the 6100 in an identical area? Enough to make a call where the 6100 will not at -104 or so Rx. power?

--Same question for the Nokia 60...

I was going to say the v710 since it has against rf strength. I've heard that the Nokia is a solid performer, but i'm not sure about the v265 (it can have strong rf strength since its a moto).

I am going demo the v265 and the nokia and i'll tell you which works better-- it might take me awhile
